kid getting G1 soon, need to find good driving school in Richmond Hill area.
Any good suggestion?

I done some google search but don't feel I can just trust those review completely.
Would be good if someone can share their experience.

Young Drivers, they are the only program that has spent tons of money on their courses... they teach tons of things that other programs might not necessarily teach.. being able to drive from A to B is one thing.. being able to predict all the drivers around you and cover off risk from them as much as possible is another.

Everyone I know who's taken the program.. it's saved them at least once.. I've sent 2 friends who have been driving for 20+ years (in Canada) back to Young Drivers (who could drive from A to B perfectly), it's saved both of them accidents (caused by others), and both feel alot better having took the course (even though its $1k +)

One caveat.. if you're not blown away by the in car instructor, change them to one that you're learning from every time you go out.

Thanks. Let me take a look at this one.
I check their website and they don't post any price / course info. Not sure why.
